Teen arrested for robbery, assaults
A 13-year-old boy faces robbery and assault with a weapon charges following two separate incidents Tuesday evening.

Approximately 8:20 p.m. a man and woman were walking on Scottsdale Drive near Wilsonview Avenue when they were approached by two youths. One of the youths spat at the woman but missed.

After a brief exchange of words the victims became concerned due to the youths’ erratic behaviour and started to walk away. The same youth who had spat at them then began throwing rocks at the victims as they ran from the area.

Approximately 20 minutes later another adult male was walking in the area of Stone Road West and Scottsdale Drive when the same teen approached and asked for his shoes. The victim tried to ignore him and keep walking but was punched in the back of the head while the teen continued to demand his sneakers.

Officers arrived a short time later and arrested the suspect inside a nearby business where he had followed the victim.

A 13-year-old Guelph boy is charged with attempted robbery, assault with a weapon and two counts of assault. He was held for a bail hearing Wednesday.

$10k in tools stolen from trailer
The Guelph Police Service is investigating after approximately $10,000 worth of tools were stolen from a trailer in the south end.

Tuesday morning, officers were called to an address on Southgate Drive. The victim reported he parked his trailer at a business overnight and returned in the morning to find the door had been pried open and his tools stolen.

Video surveillance showed two people arriving at the address approximately 4:25 a.m. in a dark blue Chevrolet Suburban. The tools were loaded into the SUV, which drove away a few minutes later. A similar Suburban was reported stolen from a north-end business during the same time period, but it is not known if the incidents are related.

Impaired charge after Tesla rear-ended
A Guelph man faces an impaired driving charge after a Tesla was rear-ended while stopped at a red light Tuesday night.

Just before 10 p.m. police were called to Stone Road West and the Hanlon Expressway. The victim was stopped behind another vehicle when it was struck from behind, causing significant damage. No serious injuries were reported.

Officers arrived and spoke to the other driver, who had a strong odour of alcohol on his breath and was showing clear signs of impairment. He was arrested and transported to the police station, where tests confirmed he had more than three times the legal amount of alcohol in his system.

A 30-year-old Guelph man is charged with impaired driving. His licence was suspended for 90 days and the vehicle, which is registered to his girlfriend who was also present, was impounded for seven days. He will appear in court April 23.
